"What I perceive is that it is a team that wants to win, to be there in the moments of decision. For that, we have to work hard and be very united, directing everyone to the same side. That way, we will be a team capable of fighting for everything. If that’s not the case, it will be very difficult. The athletes already know each other from other experiences, which makes this national team have a very united group. They know very well what it means to be here, and now we just have to hope that on the field, which is the most important thing, they are truly united and give their all for one another. Debut?
